Thanx for you quick answer!

I have :-)

No, I'd like to do a native linux-kernel-on-linux compile.

I'm compiling kernels since 1.9.X (don't remember exactly) on INTEL and
Sparc, but never did on parisc. So I did the following:

hppaubi:/usr/src# export CVSROOT=`cat linux/CVS/Root `

hppaubi:/usr/src# echo $CVSROOT
:pserver:anonymous@puffin.external.hp.com:/home/cvs/parisc

hppaubi:/usr/src# cvs -z5 co linux palo

The documents tell me to use either NFS or a RAMDISK in palo/Makefile and
_here's_ the problem (or the documents are outdated). I'll try the manual
approach and see what'll happen.


PS-OT: I wonder if SAP will port their application server to parisc/Linux...
